Handmade Holiday: Small Town Thread

November 13, 2013 Leave a Comment

Sewing is a gift hands down. I don’t have too many words for this shop, because I really am speechless when I look at the products Small Town Thread creates. Not only does this owner create astounding quilts she has an insanely cute Foxy Zip Pouch that I’m pretty sure you’re going to want to buy immediately! I hope you enjoy seeing her passion and gift during this feature. It’s an honor to show this off!
     My name is Sandra Smith, and I am currently a stay at home mom of two little girls, age 2 and 4. I have a background in graphic design, and while I loved it, it wasn’t my calling. I became a stay at home mom shortly before my youngest was born, and it’s been an amazing experience. I began really sewing in 2010, starting with crib bedding, and then I moved on to clothing and dresses for my daughters. I love making clothes for them and still do, but they can only wear so much! I began my first quilt in November of 2012 and it was a Christmas gift for my oldest daughter. She uses it daily, and I’ve been hooked on quilting since. I began sewing other things like the Foxy Zip Pouch and the Have It All Wallet this summer and love the instant gratification of these fairly quick projects. My heart still belongs to quilting though.

     I began my shop Small Town Thread on Etsy in August of this year, and while it’s been slow going trying to stock up my shop, I’ve enjoyed the process a lot. I’ve learned a lot along the way, and am really enjoying sending my products out into the world. I’ve actually had some success using Instagram (@Sandra_Smith) for sales as well.
     My favorite materials include high quality and designer quilting cottons, natural cotton ticking and duck canvas. I buy zippers in bundles, and love searching for the perfect thread to match. I currently have a few wallets, zip pouches, and baby quilts in my shop. My goal for the upcoming year is to stock up on some throw size quilts, as well as more unique, modern and handmade gifts. 


 I do take custom orders but please contact me first. Turnaround time is 2-3 weeks, and I will stop taking all orders by December 10th to ensure I have time to get things mailed for the holidays. If you’re browsing my Etsy shop, please use code BUYNOW for an additional 10% off any order over $30.

Thank you so much for taking time to read my bio, and learn more about me and my shop. I look forward to working with you! I blog at Smalltownthread.wordpress.com, and there you’ll find a lot of info about current and previous works. My shop is at etsy.com/shop/smalltownthread.

That’s it... that’s the caption and joke 😂 #humorwithkids
Follow Me... Through the gospels I see Jesus call Follow Me...

Through the gospels I see Jesus calling for people to follow him. Not to a program or an event - but the opportunity to watch him live life in Spirit and in Truth. Live in a way that brought each person closer to God not the creeds of religion. 

I remember the last few years of full time ministry for me how a mentor of mine challenged me to reevaluate how I was on boarding/leading people to Jesus. How was I teaching others to see Christ more than a method or strategy.

That work is different.

It’s also life giving. 

As I continue to read through the scriptures I’m reminded to clarify don’t follow me. JOIN me as I follow Christ and we’ll walk, grow, fail, and learn from Him together.

If we all saw each other as fellow students rather than how we believe our gifts elevate ourselves over one another. 

“The student is not above the teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like their teacher.” Luke‬ ‭6:40‬ #readwithme30

I think I finally figured out the crochet gauge on this hat and am making my fourth one 🧶

Some homeschool days we’re all killin it. Everyo Some homeschool days we’re all killin it. Everyone is excited, there’s cool ways of learning, and it’s a win all around!

Other days it feels like I’m pulling teeth...everyone is dragging and I’m herding cats - y’all I’m not a cat person either 😑 

[ad] In trying out ways to help with focus and changing up our routines. I’m seeing how techniques and even incorporating @maryruthorganics Focus & Attention for kids all natural supplements is a beneficial addition. 

We’ve been moving more towards organic and clean options from the inside out especially in our diet. I started off with their postpartum probiotics and now introducing this line for our kids 👌🏽 

What are some techniques you use in helping your kids focus on those tough #homeschooling days? #maryruthpartner
